SPRINGFIELD -- If you're looking for something to do this weekend, here's an idea. The Department of Agriculture is hosting its 16th Annual Illinois Products Expo at the State Fair Grounds. It takes place Saturday and Sunday, March 1 & 2.

Nearly 80 different vendors will be there; from handmade soaps to pasta. The show seems to have a little of everything. There will also be homemade chocolates and truffles from the Champaign-based Chocolate Enrapture.

Admission is $5. You can pay at the door. There will be thousands of samples for the tasting, as well as locally-grown and made products to buy on site.
